Mavis you were such a special person in our neighbourhood. You shared many stories and laughs with us on your front porch. Stories about the neighbourhood (and how you and Ken were the first ones here), about your family and grandchildren, Clear Lake, your times with the Shriners, so on and so on.....stories we will treasure. Rest now, dear friend. You will be greatly missed! - Posted by: The Regert's (neighbours) on: Jun 16, 2012
